Woman’s condo sold over $95 overdue tax bill

A Norcross, Georgia, woman is pleading with city leaders not to take her home over... of $94.85.

The woman says she never received any notices and never knew her condo had been sold at auction. Now city officials are trying to figure out what, if anything, went wrong.

Xui Lui says she never knew there was an overdue tax bill on her place because the notices were returned to city hall.

Lui bought the two-bedroom Norcross condo with cash in 2011. She lives there with her 4-year-old child. Records show she's paid the county taxes and the city tax every year except that first year, when the certified letters warning of the outstanding balance were returned to the city because of clerical errors. That error turned out to be an incomplete address.

“No street, no name. How can I receive the letter?” Lui asked.

Last week, Lui got a notice telling her the condo had been sold at auction and she needs to move out by Nov. 25, all because of the overdue bill.

“Where are we going to go? I have nowhere. This is my house. Why do I need to move out?” Lui said.
